Pros
Pro Interesting mix of match three and RPG
Players are in a traditional RPG world and do level up characters as they would in an RPG but the main gameplay mechanic is match three where players line up their troops against an opposing team doing the same. There is also defensive aspects to the field, so it is a bit more involved than a traditional match 3 game.
Pro Lengthy campaign
M&M Clash of Heroes has a lengthy campaign that will last around 24 hours of play, which for a puzzle focused game is pretty good.
Pro Beautiful graphics
The graphics have been upgraded for the PC version and they look great. All pixel art now in HD with bright colors and fantastic character designs.
Pro Local and online mutiplayer
New to the PC and console editions (as apposed to the DS title) there is now 4 player multiplayer that can be played locally and online.
Pro Longevity through multiple playthroughs thanks to the sheer amount of text and choices to be found in the game
The games story is pretty deep and the text that can be found within that, tells it will take multiple playthroughs to see it all, making for not only a good reason to play many times, but creates the feeling of a very deep universe.
Pro Many mods
You can find many community-created mods that improve the game.
Pro Gameplay holds up well
For what is now an eleven year old game, the classic Bioware RPG game mechanics such as branching dialog and turn based battles similar to a CRPG (where the player must pause the gameplay in order to choose their commands to then un-pause in order to watch their chosen strategy play out) hold up well.
Pro Engaging story thanks to the superb writing
Being a role playing game, KotOR has a pretty long story that the player feels connected to that luckily was written well, making for a good story that is very engaging.
Pro Handles Star Wars license well
Seeing things like Jedi vs Sith and politics in the game that are now staples of the newer movies helps to feel as though the game fits into the cannon quite well. With so many movie license games in the past being quick cash-ins it is great to see the Star Wars license used in a manner that fits with the cannon and of high quality development.
Cons
Con Writing comes off as a bit childish
While the original target of the game may have been young adults or children due to its release on the DS (a mainstay of gaming for kids) the writing shows its roots and may come off as a bit childish.
Con Somewhat buggy
Crashes can happen while playing, while not a huge deal they can be annoying.
